Verify 24V power connections are secure and correct polarity is observed. Check battery charge and health. Ensure the wired or wireless remote is functioning and paired.

Winch spools out but not in

Check the electrical connections to the motor. Ensure the clutch is properly engaged. Inspect for any obstructions preventing the drum from rotating inwards.

Weak pulling power

Ensure the vehicle's 24V battery is fully charged. Check for any voltage drop in the power cables. Inspect the rope for knots or tangles. Ensure the clutch is fully engaged.
